Abstract

<div><p>The exact incidence of superior mediastinal masses in children is largely unknown. They present as a spectrum of disease ranging from an incidental finding on a Chest X-Ray to being markedly symptomatic with superior vena caval syndrome or obstruction of the upper airways. Lymphomas seem to be the most common causes of superior mediastinal masses in children. We present two cases of confirmed T cell lymphoma in children with superior mediastinal masses. In doing so, we explore a diagnostic approach and visit the complications the physician needs to be aware of when confronted with a child with a superior mediastinal mass.</p></div>
